You don’t need to break a bank to update and fresh up the atmosphere of your home. There are plenty of inexpensive and affordable solutions. We all love to have a cosy home where to feel good. Now due to this corona pan-epidemic money can be tight and there’s no extra to spend around.
Here are some tips how to make it without a big budget.
1. Paint A Wall
New paint has a significant effect on the mood of the room. You don’t need to paint the whole room yet just one wall so called accent wall. It brings personality to the space. Choose any colour you want. It can be bright yellow, calming blue or natural beige. Painting one wall is not a huge job and you can probably do it yourself without hiring anyone. Remember you can always paint it again if you prefer another tone after a while. So it is not a structural issue.
2. Buy A Plant
Having leafy greens at home has been a trend for some time now. Plants really makes a difference in the mood and they have benefits too - such as cleaning the air inside. If you already have plants, check if they need new soil or perhaps plant them in a new pot. At the moment big plants such as monsteras are popular as well as hanging baskets.
3. Update Cushions
You don’t need to change the whole interior of a room. Check which textiles you could change to new ones. Even a couple of new cushion covers in different colours fresh up the atmosphere. Or change your grey curtains to white, for example. You can even try some bold patterns. At draper’s there are usually a corner where they sell smaller pieces of fabrics I reduced price. That’s my favourite corner!
4. Hang Some Art
If you have frames in different sizes and colours, make a collage with them. Place some photos, drawings, piece of fabric, wallpaper or what ever you like in these frames. Then gather them in a group and hang on a wall. Grouped installation looks better than several pieces around your home. If you need some new pics, check if you can find something you like here.
